We had a chance to briefly say whats up to eachother, and he asked what type of wheels I had, and before I could ask him if he was on e90post, the light turned green and he had to turn. I was just ticketed the other day, so driving spiritedly like that is totally out of the question for me and I never tried to "show him wassup" with V3.

I'm actually really starting to like just driving slow and cruising. . . . its nice to know that im saving gas, wont get rock chips, aren't stressing my car, dont look like an idiot, and dont have to worry about the law.
Dude, just read your post about your ticket... hope everything goes well with that. Your V1 didn't detect the CHP? I was wondering to myself why you were cruising so slow... better safe than sorry.

See you around man, I work around that area.

Hey man! haha, nice meeting you bro

Yes, thats why I was cruising so slow. . . . I just cant afford to mob anymore. And thanks for the good wishes about my ticket situation

Part of my defense will be the fact that he was all the way on the left side of the freeway, totally diagonal to me, with heavy traffic. . . . I was all the way on the right, exiting.

I have V1, and V1 is strong. . . very strong. So:
1) Theres no way he could have radar'd me diagonally and through all that traffic, not to mention that my V1 didn't go off.

2) Even if he lasered me, he still cant accurately do that diagonally and through all those cars, and again. . . my V1 would have gone insane if it was hit with laser.

3) The traffic was thick enough that it took him a good 2-3 minutes just to cross, exit, and find me at a light I was waiting to turn right on.
Leading me to believe that he eyed me and assumed my speed, which he was right about, but still gives me reason to doubt his use of a radar/laser gun. He did, however, write the radar gun's number down. . . .but if it's BS, then thats alright, because his bluff will be called out soon enough (with my Trial by Mail declaration).

Whereabouts on the 101N? I'm on the 101 every friggin day between the 23 and the 405.

What noticeable mods do you have besides the lights? Hard to spot without any distinguishable mods. There are too many e9xs around these days.

i dont have any other mods, just the lights + usually im driving REALLY fast and aggressive so i think the driving alone would be enough to spot me but i guess this thread is only for spots of modded cars
on the 101 honk if you see a E90 titanium silver m tech on csl wheels u can spot a socale90 sticker running down the side ...
